THE TRADES PROCESSION.
Preparations Begun for the
Grandest Trades Dis
play Ever Seen.

At the last meeting of the Sedalia fai
association, the board on motion re
solved to request Mr.. John B. Dalb,
to take charge of the management O
the annual trades procession on fail
week. Mr.. Daily was seen yesterday
by BAZoo reporter and stated tha
he had accepted the commission and
would at once enter upon prepare
tons for the event. Secretary Mont
gomery of the fair association
had promised him all the aid
in his power, and in view of the sue
cess last year he expected the coming
fair to be able with the cooperation
of the Sadalia merchants to present
by far the greatest display ever wit
messed west of st. Louis. Sedalia
last year eclipsed Kansas City in
this respect almost without prepare
ton. This year the committees on
trades procession proposed to begin
in time and would see every merchant
and business man in the city, and
all would be giveR ample time to pre-
pare such a display as would not only
be of advantage to themselves but a
credit to the whole city. This year
arrangements would be made for the
thorough illumination of the entire
route of the procession from one end
to the other by means of electricity.
colored lights, lanterns, torches, fire
works, etc.
A thoroughly drilled Flambeau
club would be added to the attrac-
tions and a masquerade department
would be another feature. The ex-
position will meet this season in Au-
gust and it will, therefore, be necessa-
~ to be ready earlier than heretofore,
but ample time remains vet to enable
the citizens to prepare for the grandest
display ever made in the west, and it
is to be hoped they will take hold with
Mr.. Daily and his committee in this
matter and do so. Sedalia possesses
every advantage for making her State
fair second in Importance and extent
to the st. Louis exposition, and all
that she needs to accomplish it, is the
united effort of her people to that
end.

After the Maize.

Yesterday morning an unknown in.
dividual giving the name Of higgins,
called at Ed Stevens stables with q
mule to sell. Captain Stevens is as
good Judge of human stock as he is
or mule stock, and at once made up
his mind that the mule was stolen and
the possessor was the thief. In order
to stop him however, he purchased the
animal and SIS usual gave his check
payable to higgins in person, expect
ing the individual to return in a
very short time with the check
In this, however he was deceived as
higgins failed to return, nor has the
check since been heard of. Last
evening, however, a young man
named Taylor arrived In the city in
search Of the mule and higgins. He
found the former but not the latter.
Taylor stated that the mule was sto-
len at Higginsville and Capt. Stevens
is of the opinion. that higgins,
finding it necessary to find some one
to recognize him, suspected a trick
and has skipped. The police were
looking for him last night, but failed
to find him, and Capt. Stevens at
once notified the public, by sdver-
tisement, as will be seen elsewhere,
not to negotiate for the check.

Once again Patti is to take an op-
cratic farewell of New York--at the
usual prices. The great diva seems
to be patty which is never done.
On this subject poet says, after the
style of Byron:
Fare thee well and if another
Chance / get to fare thee we'll,
NicolinIs qualms I'll smother
And gayly face the chestnut bell!
Fare thee well, boys with high collars!
Wheresoe'er my voice may roam,
shan't forget the triple dollars
You paid to hear my "Home, Sweet
Home"
Fare thee we'll and this fond linnet
Wishes here the truth to tell;
That every time there's money in it
She'll come round and fare thee well

Wanted to Die.

Last night Mrs. Thomas Berry,
residing on Ninth and Engineer at
tempted to commit suicide by throw
ing herself under the wheels
of the M. K. 7. passenger
train at the Indiana street crossing.
The train came in about IL p. m. O.,
being little late, and fortunately
when Mrs. Berry made her attempt
she was seen by officer Barnett
in time to save her, at considerable
risk to himself, as he dragged her
from under the express cars. Mrs. Ber-
ry when rescued was perfectly insane
and begged the officer to allow her to
destroy herself. Family trouble is said
to be the cause of her malady. She
was taken to the residence of con-

ly induced to return home.

Circuit Court.

4
ton of the suit of Perdalia Hubbard
VS.. j. d. Sicher in the circuit court
last evening. The plaintiff brings the
suit in her own name for alleged dam
ages to her property, caused by the
maintenance of the lake in the Park.
The jury had been duly empanneled
in the forenoon, and the hearing of
the case begun. At the afternoon
session the plaintiff took the stand and
got along very well with her own at
torney, Col. Snoddy, but when she
was passed over for the cross fire of
Henry Lamm, who is conducting the
defense, there was q very sudden
change in the status of the matter.
After few preliminary questions Mr..
Lamm asked:
"Are you married woman, Mrs.
Hubbard ?"
There being no answer given, the
question was repeated two or three
times, with like result, when Mr..
Lamm appealed to the court.
"YOu must answer the question"
said Judge Field.
"Are you a married wsm am"
again asked Mr.. Lamm.
Il don't think that is any of your
business"
'That is not an answer; tell nae if
you are married waman, yes or no."
cit is ne concern of yours"
Again the court interfered and wit
ness finally said that she had been
married, but was separated from her
husband and did not know if she was
married or not.
Shave you secured o divorce
mo sir"
Mr.. Lamm asked that the case be
dismissed as q married woman could
not sue In her own name.
The attorney for the defense claim
ed that the revelation was new to him
and asked leave with thirty days time |
to file an amended petition. After
considerable argument the leave was
granted, the jury dismissed and the
cause continued at the plaintiffs cost. |
The only other case called was that of |
the Crystal Ice Company vs. Pat
Baughn, an appeal case, which was |
taken up a jury waived, the cause
